He means he has more 'detail' on the building when not zoomed in.

Hello everyone, I am trying to finish the MP-133 mod quest from Mechanic, I am missing only the muzzle. Anyone does know where can I get it easy?
languid flare
Fairly common in weapon boxes and such.
Just keep looting them all

Can Fence sell it?
languid flare
If... someone sells it to Fence? probably.
spare token
Oh, so fence list items that player sells to himm ?:O
languid flare
Yes, but Iam not sure how it works exactly.
mellow ingot
Do you have flea market yet?
languid flare
Mostly cause he has so many things you could get more money at other traders...
Maybe people are just weird... or dumb
spare token
I am level 6 @mellow ingot
mellow ingot
Ah ok
spare token
trying to learn the game:D but it's hard
mellow ingot
Yea your best bet will be to find it until yu get Flea
languid flare
Easiest to learn the game is to play with someone else.
Experienced or not.
vital marten
could someone help decide what to sell from my invo?
mellow ingot

languid flare
@mellow ingot I agree to disagree shrugs
mellow ingot
The easiest way to learn is with. Someone buy the best way is solo
languid flare
Well, I said easiest. But still, agree to disagree, cause I dont enjoy playing solo much
mellow ingot
Yea it really depends who you are
mellow ingot
Sometimes I can't stand a group and sometimes solo is just boring
bold kernel
are barter trades considered FiR?
vital marten
im mainly trying to sell the blue shites
bold kernel
so if I buy a junkbox with 100 dogtags I cant sell it on flea?
languid flare
@bold kernel If you trade an item in any way it is not FiR
You ONLY get FiR from Quests, Crafts, Scav Case and... well, finding it in raid.
bold kernel
thanks that was clear
languid flare
I try to give the best answer possible, if possible 🙂
@vital marten Most items have SOME use.
Keep cigarettes besides Apollo, for a Quest later.
You can sell Zibbo, Matches, Soap, TP, Chlorine
Rest is used for Quests and/or Hideout
These are the items you 100% need as 'Found in Raid' for Quests
Every other item (mostly Hideout) could be bought on demand from flea, if you wanna do it that way.
bold kernel
@languid flare I looted 4 weapons off PMCs yet they're not FIR
languid flare
Stuff a PMC brings into a raid are not FiR cause they arent from this raid, but from a PMC 🙂
Only stuff that spawned THIS RAID are FiR

oooh got it

What's the recommendation for Reshala. Best case scenario you find him in dorms? Then if he's at gas station or the big ole factory building you just hope you get the jump on his men and or him?

As long as he's not in the open he should be doable.
At least thats my experience.
Mostly because of his guards just shitting out bullets and grenades xD

bold kernel
762
languid flare
762 is the good one :D
I like it.
But it needs SOME mods you might not have to be properly useable.
gray jay
Gear fear? Chuck it on the market or sell it to mechanic or yolo and take it into a raid
that's what i've been doing atleast
languid flare
If you got the 20 round mags, you are good to use it tho.
bold kernel
I looted these 4 weapons on my scav run https://i.imgur.com/Mvnn2Wl.png but I've only used SKS and the AKs from scavs so far
languid flare
Ohhhh, modded MDR even 😮
bold kernel
yeah but I cant sell it on flea
languid flare
Yeah
gray jay
see what mechanic takes for it
languid flare
Might as well use it, or keep it until you got 20 rounders
bold kernel
mechanic pays 120k
gray jay
Keep it until you get can 20 rounders from flea or chuck it over to him take the mods off to see if it's the same price or if the mods add more $ to the sell.
bold kernel
I dont feel like I'm good enough to use it yet but 120k isnt much when I keep dying trying to do quests
languid flare
@gray jay mods 100% add more 😛
@bold kernel It shreds, pretty low recoil, only downside low mag size
vital marten
why cant mechanic buy some weapon parts, do i sell them to fence after selling the body or whatever to mech
languid flare
Which parts? (Screenshot)
bold kernel
I should have a session w a sherpa, Im lvl13 but I barely see any improvement
languid flare
Go do it.
Sure helps
vital marten
nvm i went back and could do it
languid flare
Thought so :P
If someone who should, doesnt buy something, its usually a update error
vital marten
i think its because i dismantled the weapon in the dealer screen
languid flare
@vital marten Thats exactly why, hence: Update error.
Screen updated parts, but not the prices on them
vital marten
i dislike that you have to dismantle the weapon to make the max money off it
languid flare
You ... dont anymore?
Mechanic buys everything for the most, besides bolt action and shotguns, those are sold best to jäger
bold kernel
https://i.imgur.com/UKrkf0s.png whats the diff between BEAR and USEC in the sherpa program? Is it just aesthetic?
languid flare
Well... you already are either bear or usec
But they give you a gearset.
And it depends on what you chose there
For USEC its a barebones M4, for BEAR some AK
USEC gets a trooper, Bear an AVS
shrugs
bold kernel
oh got it, Im USEC
languid flare
But technically... to answer your question, but not the way you want: Yes, the difference between USEC and BEAR is asthetics 😛
At least currently.

frigid thicket
So I have noticed a lot recently that only part of my kits are coming back from insurance when I have my teammates drop them. Like I'll get the gun back and rig but no helmet and my 60 round mags are gone. I have started writing down who is the person who drops my gear and write down what gear I had. So far I have two people that failed to either hide all my gear correctly or plainly just took some of my gear out. Not a bad idea for people who play in teams frequently.
frigid thicket
@placid heath I've only been on this server for probably 10 days. I have a few folks that I enjoy and trust to play with but not everyone is always on at the same time. It's not like im short on cash or anything but it's just a show of character when someone takes other peoples shit. Not only that but now I personally know who to watch out for and I can avoid them.

river wind
whats a bear and a usec
analog fulcrum
@river wind the player PMC factions?
river wind
no like in the beginning of the game where you have to choose @analog fulcrum
analog fulcrum
well, yeah, youre choosing your faction
the only things really that will matter from your choice is you get either russian(bear) voice commands/voicelines or english(usec) and you get different clothing customization options
analog fulcrum
usec has a nice voice type that you can actually use to communicate and taunt players with/be funny
clothes it depends whos you prefer but most prefer BEAR options
river wind
who do most people choose
analog fulcrum
check out the clothing list https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Tactical_clothing
analog fulcrum
ehh idk Id say americans more often choose USEC, europeans/russians more often BEAR, but theres always a decent ammount of both
many people like the black hoodie that BEAR gets(black lynx) and the summer field camo clothing
it really doesnt matter much, just what you prefer, Id say if you wanna try communicate with other players pick USEC, if you dont care about that then BEAR
river wind
ill go usec then
analog fulcrum
since most people wont understand russian and if youre BEAR you can only talk russian
river wind
why would i need to communicate with other players trhough game
couldnt i use discord
analog fulcrum
I mean, its more for trying to either befriend enemies, or just trolling/taunting players
analog fulcrum
when you actually play with someone ofc its better to just use discord, the ingame voice comms are for randoms u meet
thats a very generic question :D
analog fulcrum
go to traders, pick up tasks/quests, can then go ahead and try to complete them
no tutorial
river wind
i have a feeling as soon as i go in im dead
because there is gonna be some sweat with insane gear
analog fulcrum
can also do scav runs where you take controll of an NPC and you basically get a chance to extract with some loot without actually risking any of your items
can also go in with your PMC in offline mode just to learn the maps/where the extracts are
lime willow
there is an offline mode where you can get a hang of the controls, and even enable the AI mobs that roam the map
analog fulcrum
oh and google each of the ingame locations to get player made maps, theyre much better than ingame ones, can either keep them turned on on a 2nd monitor or if you dont have one just Alt + Tab to it when u wanna check it @river wind
analog fulcrum
well, thats normal, most people are confused about many things when starting with EFT :D
can also look up guides on youtube on specific things
river wind
does anybody wanna hop on a call and ill screenshare and my friend can watch because he is thinking of getting this game aswell
and teach me this confusing gane
lapis mauve
for sure do offline a bit to get used to things and learn the map a little
alternating offline with a scav run can be good to start too
river wind
how do i go in offline
lapis mauve
hit escape from tarkov, pick pmc, pick a map, then hit the box next to enable offline mode
lapis mauve
you can change it between 50 and 75

Is it normal to develop hoarding like behavior in EFT? I have trouble selling stuff I'm completely out of stash room. My pmc also has every slot filled.
quasi crater
yes
everyone hoards when they start
the FiR changes also made it worse as you cant sell stuff in Flea if not FiR
so you end up with a stash of other PMC gear that you will want to use eventually, before you could just Flea it and then buy stuff when you needed it
FiR is a good change though imo anyway. Also gear fear normally makes people hoard more

You can play in groups but honestly you can get super reliant on them. Sometimes you just gotta explorer. Keep a map handy on another monitor, print it if you have to.

Just loot anything you find.
Dont try to compete with others.
Scav on Interchange is worth it, if you dont wanna risk your PMC, or Reserve, if you can/want to run it

cool thx roasted toast

That's what I've been doing - filters sell pretty well too but Interchange can be intense, I got shot down near extraction even with like 4 minutes left on the clock

@hardy salmon half of the spots here are prefired everyraid
hardy salmon
Yes but it shows you what to look for to find your own

if you want to stay a shit player
go extract camp
wont make you a better player tho
hardy salmon
Will get you money
placid heath

i got to my level without doing a single extract camp, pistol run or any other degenerate strat
scav runs are plenty
if you are desperate
cloud rover
I need to get rid of my gearfear

scav runs are the big loot
hardy salmon
Loot is money and money is gear and gear is best
worn silo
I need to get rid of my gearfear
@cloud rover lmao u need to get lvl 10 already
cloud rover
I'd rather have skill than gear doe
worn silo
Loot is money and money is gear and gear is best
@hardy salmon loot is gear so technically loot= best
hardy salmon
Idc what skill you have, if you have a glock and I’m full killa you’re going to die
cloud rover
Gear shouldn't compensate skill
worn silo
Idc what skill you have, if you have a glock and I’m full killa you’re going to die
@hardy salmon till u get hit through the slit like the degenerate u are 🙂
hardy salmon
@placid heath head meta
placid heath
but richo needs gear to compensate i guess
😄
i can clapp fully geared pmcs with a toz
worn silo
Gear shouldn't compensate skill
@cloud rover imo it should gear is there to cover for your mistakes
hardy salmon
Lol 80% of my kills are with low tier guns I can aim
worn silo
armor should protect u when u make a mistake thats what its for
hardy salmon
But extract camping is easy money
cloud rover
Mistakes/skill
hardy salmon
What else can you watch YouTube and get kills with
cloud rover
You can make mistakes even if you are a pro gamer with a gaming chair

You can make mistakes even if you are a pro gamer with a gaming chair

Today I didn't even play
hardy salmon
I’m clearing the world of the rats
I don’t camp chad extracts
Only the rat ones
Don’t get me wrong chads are easy to kill and all of you leg meta while they don’t see you, but rats are usually more juiced on ledxes and graphics cards out the ass
worn silo
the only reason why i dont hate u is because u have a doctor profile pic
hardy salmon
That just makes me more toxic
worn silo
doctor is fun in dbd
hardy salmon
Facts
cloud rover
Siege is bruh
worn silo
dont gotta go chasing those immersed gamers
worn silo
make a backpack or a vest for each type of thing
one for meds one for ammo one for food
itll make it easier to sort everything
keep barter items and good stacked in a corner at the bottom of your hideout
unreal imp
Selling stuff you dont need is the easy way to keep your stash clean
wanton grove
woods is like the worst map ever
unreal imp
Woods is fine, you just have to realize people will sit in a bush for 40 mins and then watch out for those
wanton grove
thats why it's not fine
because you either do the same boring shit
or you die to these
that's just my opinion tho
wanton grove
i run too, i got silencer sniped like 3 times in a row now
worn silo
dont run in a straight line
unreal imp
Figure out where you get shot from and go behind a tree
worn silo
also dont run at all
i dont run in woods
everybody runs in woods and gets ambushed
i just walk around chillin like a villian
then i get to 3rd party every fight
wanton grove
gonna try this then
cloud rover
do the snek
unreal imp
You can run but only when you know nobody will hear you run
wanton grove
i mean on woods i feel like vision is more important
i dont even knmow if its worth running headgear
worn silo
if a tree falls in a forest does somebody here it or is it silent
thats literally woods in a nutshell
unreal imp
I run level 4 armored rig and maybe a faceshield just for shotgun scavs
worn silo
face shields are useless
unreal imp
They stop buckshot
worn silo
if u are destined to get head eyesd a face shield wont stop it
it will stop 1 buckshot round
worn silo
if the scav doesnt spam your hear instantly
also u will get head ears of head jaw eitherway
unreal imp
Faceshield covers jaws and i use chops and ears
worn silo
doesnt cover u when youre shot from below
unreal imp
It covers areas fully that it says it does
worn silo
also chops dont cover the ears
strong barn
airframe ones do
worn silo
it doesnt ive shot plenty of of people under the face shield
unreal imp
Airframe chops cover the jaws, i said i use ears as well
That is not possible to do, it is a penetration chance of the faceshield
worn silo
i literally have a video head eyeing my friend without hitting his faceshield
cus i was shooting from below it
i mean the chances are slim
but with tarkov nothing is impossible
unreal imp
Not definitive proof as a portion of glass faceshields can have a glitch that they are up before you toggle them off and on in raid
worn silo
happend more than a few times
eitherway im not going to argue
thats my experience
u have a different one and its fine
unreal imp
Its not a question about experiences, but clearly defined game mechanics
worn silo
theres no clearly defined game mechanics in tarkov some hitboxes glitch
nothing that u see in the wiki was defined by the devs either its literally the community doing tests
hell the most basic thing the fucking ammo charts is community made
unreal imp
My current understanding is that armour and helmets protect their said areas 100% with no correlation with visual looks, this should be changed to a realistic model in the fututre though so BSG might change stuff to actually have unarmored angles of attack without putting it in patch notes
placid heath
this is correct
worn silo
never seen this being correct
u can run a face shield get hit from the side and get head jaws
placid heath
he was talking about armour not helmets
worn silo
without it touching the face shield
placid heath
helmets work differently
worn silo
My current understanding is that armour and helmets protect their said areas 100%
@unreal imp
he literally said helmets
placid heath
oh missread
worn silo
xD
placid heath
faceshield protect towards the front
worn silo
yep
worn silo
u can get hit from under and from the sides of faceshield
placid heath
so it is possible to get shot in the face from the side
but unlikely
such a rare occasion that it does not matter
worn silo
i killed a fair amount of players shooting from below a faceshield
not enough to make it special
i mean like maybe a hand full
half of them teammates
placid heath

hardy salmon
I couldn’t kill 2 rats because my angle was so small my shots were hitting the sandbags infront of me ;-;
bold kernel
is Key to utility room of OLI outlet useless?
hardy salmon
How much it sell for?
bold kernel
26k
hardy salmon
Prob ok ish key
bold kernel
but the wiki doesnt say what's behind the lock
hardy salmon
Or a quest key
bold kernel
!wiki Key to utility room of OLI outlet
bold kernel
see it doesn't say anything about it
hardy salmon
I see a room behind the lock image
bold kernel
Yeah but usually the wiki says what's in that room (ex: weapon crates, cabinet files etc)
hardy salmon
Prob just shelf spawns
bold kernel
why is the game so hard
drifting kernel
cos its a hardcore game
unreal imp
TTK isn't that low either
It gets quite low with meta weapons, but the TTK range is quite large
worn silo
not really
budget aks shoot 10 shots a second with around 40~ damage a shot
thats less than 2 tenths to kill u in the chest
not to mention MP-9 mp7
also tarkov isnt hardcore at all
unreal imp
When wearing higher level armour the reliable low ttk comes from a fal
worn silo
igolnik and bs are almost nothing in price
unreal imp
Igolnik and bs are quite expensive for a round that can be fired only at 650rpm and needs 3 to kill
worn silo
not to mention BT is literally dirt cheap
3 to kill 10 RPS
thats 3 kills in less than a second
i dont see the argument of ttk not bein low when they go through armor like butter
and then again thats not factoring in Mp9s and mp7s
unreal imp
TTK is much lower in squad for example, everything kills in around 0.1 seconds. 0.27 seconds to kill with perfect shots to thorax from an ak is not that fast
unreal imp
But squad has a TTK and tarkov has a TTK
unreal imp
And the ttk in overwatch is slower
worn silo
that doesnt make overwatch not hardcore
unreal imp
Overwatch is as hardcore as a moba
worn silo
the problem with tarkov is armor is basically useless
unreal imp
Why is that a problem, shouldn't players be able to kill players
worn silo
thats not the problem
unreal imp
Then what is
worn silo
people should be killing eachother
unreal imp
People are killing eachother
worn silo
but whats the point in investing in something that hampers mobility if it does squat shit
armor should protect u
good ammo is way to cheap
unreal imp
So you are saying you want a duality of armour that both protects you heavily from ap bullets while still having people kill eachother
That just makes no sense
worn silo
thats not what i said at all
i said that ammo is way to available
armor is useless because of ammo availabilty
not because it doesnt protect u from those bullets
unreal imp
So nobody should have the ammunition to kill other players resulting to another conflict with your earlier statement of people killing eachother
unreal imp
Im just telling you what you say since you don't quite understand it yourself
stray barn
I think you're just misinterpreting what he's saying m3tso.
worn silo
quote me on when i said people shouldnt have good ammo?
unreal imp
"Ammo is way too available"
worn silo
take BS and iglonik
stray barn
He said it should be more expensive
worn silo
thats literally not saying they shouldnt have it
its saying that because of its availablity and cheapness armor becomes useless
stray barn
More expensive doesn't mean not available
unreal imp
The price doesn't matter at all, players will have ammo even if it the price was 5 times more
worn silo
but less players will have it
stray barn
But they'd be losing money when they died, that's the point
stray barn
if it's more expensive it's less effective to run
which means cheaper armor is more viable
worn silo
if half the player base cant afford a round thats 5K a round
stray barn
and means expensive armor will be more of a luxury
worn silo
than armor becomes effective
but because good ammo is only 1k a round u can run it even if youre an intermidate player with 2 mil
stray barn
Instead of just instant leg meta despite any armor
unreal imp
But can't those bullets still penetrate the good armour and armour is still "useless"
stray barn
If it still penetrates, you're paying for what you get
worn silo
and if u didnt know armor has up to 40% damage reduction
stray barn
You're telling me a poor dude is gonna be able to afford infinite amounts of top tier ammo instantly?
worn silo
no u fucking cant
stray barn
there's a little more to that
unreal imp
I can actually
viscid island
bro idk about you but
stray barn
and even then, if you lose the ammo you are losing a lot more money
stray barn
which means those poor guys will not be able to run it all the time
